The current state of the electrical grid in New York is uncertain–the upstate region, while reliable now, is seeing potential for large load growth leading to reliability shortfalls, and the downstate region faces significant reliability challenges starting as soon as summer, 2026. . The South Sudan Electricity Corporation (SSEC) is a parastatal company whose primary purpose is to generate electric power for use in South Sudan and for sale to neighboring countries. Following the split from Sudan, South Sudan signed THE SOUTHERN SUDAN ELECTRICITY CORPORATION ACT, 2011 into law. . In support of the clean energy transition, the New York Power Grid Study was undertaken in order to identify distribution upgrades, local transmission upgrades, and bulk transmission investments that are necessary or appropriate for the power grid for the State of New York. The country relies on imported diesel for electricity generation, besides having limited focus on renewable energy development. At the heart of the matter are systemic problems within the Juba Electrification Center (JEDCO) and an urgent need for reforms to ensure a reliable electricity supply.
